Flour + water + salt + sourdough starter.

Hands in dough.

Crazy, right?

To think…
Masayo, from Japan 🇯🇵
and
Fern, from New Zealand 🇳🇿
have both lived in Lille 🇫🇷 - a beautiful French city right on the Belgian 🇧🇪 border.

There you find little cafés spilling onto cobbled streets and every coffee arrives with a speculoos biscuit (now better known internationally as Biscoff) ☕️🤎

It’s amazing how certain flavours can instantly transport you back to a place you love.

So here’s to our new Biscoff twice-baked croissant - a little nod to those lovely Flemish memories.

Caramelised, buttery, and filled with Biscoff goodness.

Available in store now 🤎💙

Bon app! 😋

So proud to be part of the incredible (and ever-growing) food scene here in the Waikato 💙

A small but important announcement 💙

Like many small businesses, we’ve been navigating a steady increase in the cost of goods 🫣

We’ve done our best to hold off making changes - but having recently received a 14% increase in the price of butter 😳 and seeing costs rise across the board - we can’t hold off any longer.

From this week, you’ll notice small price increases across our pastries and coffee.

Importantly, for now, our bread prices will remain unchanged.

Our commitment has always been the same - to use ingredients we’re proud of and make everything by hand, using traditional methods.

That won’t change.

And - particularly after seeing Starbucks pricing - our small batch handcrafted pastries and breads seem like great value! 😁🙌🏼✨

Thank you 🙏🏼 As always, your understanding and support truly means a lot 💙

👇🏼History of the ANZAC biscuit 🍪❤️

This humble, yet delicious, biscuit dates back to World War I, when families in NZ and Australia sent food to their beloved soldiers overseas (ANZAC = Australian & NZ Army Corps).

Made from simple pantry staples like oats, flour, sugar, golden syrup, and coconut, the biscuits were designed to travel well and last a long time.

No eggs - to avoid them spoiling on the long sea journey.

Abroad, soldiers were living on ‘hard tack’ (military ration) and so these biscuits became a small comfort from home. 💝

Golden, chewy and made with love.

Over time, they’ve became closely tied to ANZAC Day (25 April), which commemorates the soldiers who have served and died in wars and conflicts.

🍪 Rüdi’s version of the ANZAC biscuit stays true to the classic while being vegan-friendly, using coconut oil. Available in-store by the bag.

✨We also have an ANZAC special - a croissant swirl with vanilla buttercream, finished with a mini ANZAC biscuit on top. Sadly this isn’t vegan, but it is certainly delicious.

Available until ANZAC Day tomorrow (Saturday).

We’ll be open from 7.30am for those heading in after the dawn service

Coffee and fresh bakes will be ready for you. ☕️🍞🥐

A public holiday surcharge will apply (to cover the additional staffing charges)

🍐Feijoa season… which camp are you in? 🤔👇🏼

1. Still chasing a proper fix?
Or
2. Went too hard, too early… and thought you might be done for the season

Either way, if you’re a feijoa fan, this one’s for you 🥐😋

A golden, buttery pastry boat filled with house-made poached feijoa and apple compote, finished with a crunchy crumble and a dusting of icing sugar.

Sweet, tangy, and nostalgic - ultimate treat to ease into autumn 🍂|

Hot tip: these make a delicious dessert. Take a couple home, warm in the oven (or air fryer) and serve with cream, yoghurt or vanilla ice cream 🤤
